Hunter Biden Jury Selection Starts.

Jury selection for the federal gun case against Hunter Biden, son of Joe Biden, begins Monday. The trial comes after a “sweetheart” plea deal with prosecutors fell apart when Judge Maryellen Noreika interrogated its unusually generous terms.

Hunter has been charged in Delaware with three felonies related to a 2018 firearm purchase. His memoirs say he was abusing crack cocaine during this period. The First Son is accused of lying to a federally licensed gun dealer, falsely claiming he was not a drug abuser on his firearm application, and possessing the gun illegally for 11 days.

He has pleaded not guilty, alleging the Justice Department is unfairly targeting him despite the special treatment in his now-defunct plea deal.

During jury selection, the judge will question prospective jurors about their political activities and views on the upcoming election, as well as their opinions on firearms purchases and drug addiction.

Separately, Hunter is also facing a California trial in September for allegedly failing to pay $1.4 million in taxes. The aforementioned plea deal would have dealt with these charges as well.

FAMILY BUSINESS.

Hunter’s upcoming trials do not center on his foreign business deals. Joe Biden allegedly played a role in these, indicating broader corruption within the Biden family.

Messages Hunter exchanged with a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) official from Joe Biden’s Delaware home before he became President show Hunter threatening, “I am sitting here with my father, and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled… [I] will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.”

Joe Biden has long denied any involvement in his son’s business schemes. However, Rep. James Comer’s House Oversight Committee found Hunter’s China-linked Owasco PC firm made “direct monthly payments to Joe Biden.”

Mexico Elects Far-Left Claudia Sheinbaum as First Female, First ‘Jewish’ President.

Claudia Sheinbaum has won the Mexican presidential elections. A member of current president Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s leftist Moreno party, Obrador will be both the first woman and the first Jewish person to become President of Mexico. Sheinbaum, a climate “scientist,” has strongly emphasized her sex, telling supporters, “For the first time in 200 years of the Republic, I will become the first woman president of Mexico. We have achieved a plural, diverse, and democratic Mexico.” Conversely, she has downplayed her Jewish heritage, saying, “Of course I know where I come from, but my parents were atheists,” and insisting she “never belonged to the Jewish community.”

Her Ashkenazi paternal and Sephardic maternal grandparents migrated to Mexico from Lithuania and Bulgaria, respectively.

The Mexican presidency is an important matter for the U.S., with the flood of illegal aliens and fentanyl across the southern border having reached unprecedented heights with Obrador in the Mexican presidential palace and Joe Biden in the White House.

President Obrador, known as AMLO, has shown little enthusiasm for tackling the crises. “We do not produce fentanyl, and we do not have consumption of fentanyl” in Mexico, he said in 2023, telling Americans the drug is “their problem.”

The same year, Obrador said the “flow of migrants” will continue unless the U.S. meets a series of Mexican demands, including an end to the trade embargo against communist Cuba, the lifting of sanctions against communist Venezuela, the legalization of millions of Mexican illegals, and tens of billions of dollars in payouts to Latin America.

Sheinbaum has said she will continue Obrador’s foreign policy with “pride” and “will always tell [the U.S.] it’s better to build bridges rather than walls.”

The Washington Post Will Now Be Led by Two Brits Who Broke One of the Biggest Scandals in UK Politics.

Sally Buzbee announced she is stepping down as executive editor of The Washington Post. Buzbee’s departure came as a surprise to many late on Sunday night, including Post reporters themselves.

Buzbee will be succeeded by Matt Murray, the former Editor-in-Chief of the Wall Street Journal, in the short term. British investigative reporter Robert Winnett, currently the deputy editor of The Telegraph Media Group, will also join the Post in a new role designed to oversee core coverage areas like politics, investigations, business, technology, sports, and features.

Winnett, who began his national newspaper career at Rupert Murdoch’s Sunday Times, moved to the Telegraph nearly two decades ago, assisting in the coverage of the massive parliamentary expenses scandal story that broke in 2009. At the time, Winnett worked under Will Lewis, who is now the publisher of the Bezos-owned Post.

Winnett and Lewis aren’t the only Brits making America their home for news reporting. CNN recently brought in the BBC’s Mark Thompson. GB News recently sent reporter Steven Edginton to Washington, D.C., and the Daily Mail’s Rob Crilly can often be spotted around Capitol Hill. The National Pulse is also edited by a Brit, Raheem Kassam.

Knife Attacker At Anti-Islamization Rally Identified As 25-Year-Old Afghan Migrant.

The individual responsible for attacking multiple people at an anti-Islamization rally in the German city of Mannheim on Friday has been identified as Sulaiman A., a 25-year-old Afghan migrant. A graphic video of the attack shows the Afghan national and resident of Hesse attacking people at a rally against Islamist extremism organized by the Citizens’ Movement Pax Europa (BpE), described as a counter-jihad group.

Multiple people attempted to restrain the attacker, including a police officer who appeared to be stabbed in the neck while trying to bring the attacker to the ground. A second police officer then shot the suspect, wounding him.

German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser has raised the possibility that the attack could be Islamist-motivated. “If the investigations reveal an Islamist motive, this would be a further confirmation of the great danger posed by Islamist acts of violence,” she said in a statement.

The National Pulse has previously reported that migrants in Germany have been the source of a wave of violent crime. Recent data disclosed by Germany‘s Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) revealed that foreign migrants, who account for just 14.6 percent of the country’s population, were implicated in 58.5 percent of all violent crimes in the country.

Meanwhile, the German Interior Ministry has confirmed that the number of foreign criminal suspects surged to approximately 923,000 in 2023, a rise of almost a fifth year over year.

Farage Stands by Trump After Sham Conviction: ‘The World Will Be a Much Safer Place with Him in the White House.’

Brexit leader Nigel Farage is sticking by his decision to forgo standing in the British election on July 4 in favor of campaigning for Donald Trump, despite the former President’s sham conviction in Manhattan.

“Yes, of course I’m going to stand up and defend Donald Trump,” Farage told British media when asked if he has any regrets. “And I’ll tell you why, because I believe the world, uncertain as it is, will be a much safer place with him in the White House than Joe Biden,” he explained, citing the former president’s record of negotiating peace and trade accords between Arab states and Israel, in particular.

Reacting to Trump’s conviction directly on X, formerly Twitter, Farage wrote that the “verdict is a disgrace” and predicted Trump would “win big” as a result.

Earlier this month, Farage said a “strong America as a close ally is vital for [Britain’s] peace and security” and pledged to “help with the grassroots campaign in the USA in any way I can.”

He campaigned for Trump during the 2016 election. The then-future president, in turn, backed Brexit ahead of Britain’s prior European Union referendum and hosted Farage, National Pulse Editor-in-Chief Raheem Kassam, and other Brexit leaders at Trump Tower after he became President-elect.

Power Grab: Dem Rep. Raskin Says Biden DOJ Should FORCE Alito, Thomas to Recuse.

Democrat Representative Jamie Raskin is arguing Joe Biden’s Justice Department can force Supreme Court justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito to step down from cases related to the January 6 protests. The cases in question, Trump v. United States and Fischer v. United States, involve then-President Donald Trump’s supposed role in the Jan 6 disorder.

According to Raskin, U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland can petition other Supreme Court justices to enforce recusal under judicial disqualification statutes and the U.S. Constitution. Raskin emphasizes that these recusal statutes are legally binding and not mere recommendations.

“It seems unfathomable that the two justices could get away with deciding for themselves whether they can be impartial in ruling on cases affecting Donald Trump’s liability for crimes he is accused of committing on Jan. 6,” Raskin whines.

“The U.S. Department of Justice… can petition the other seven justices to require Justices Alito and Thomas to recuse themselves not as a matter of grace but as a matter of law,” he argues.

“The Justice Department and Attorney General Merrick Garland can invoke two powerful textual authorities for this motion: the Constitution of the United States, specifically the due process clause, and the federal statute mandating judicial disqualification for questionable impartiality, 28 U.S.C. Section 455,” he claims.

SEPARATION OF POWERS?

The Biden Justice Department’s attempting to stack the court against Donald Trump while prosecuting him would be a significant attack on the separation of powers, with the Supreme Court being a branch of the U.S. government co-equal with the executive.

However, it is not the only line of attack Raskin has opened against the Supreme Court. He is also pushing for Congress to stack the court with four additional justices and to impose an “ethics code” which would make it easier for Congressmen to impeach justices considered problematic.

Raskin appears willing to thwart Trump’s reelection by any means necessary, drafting legislation to try and prevent him from standing and celebrating his sham conviction in New York as a “victory” for “Democratic politics.”

Iranian IRGC, Hezbollah Forces Killed By Joint U.S.-British Airstrikes In Yemen.

Members of Iran‘s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the Lebanese-based Hezbollah terrorist group have been killed in a series of joint U.S.-British airstrikes targeting the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen. The strikes, which occurred yesterday, come on the heels of reports that Iran recently supplied the Houthi rebel group with anti-ship ballistic missiles.

The airstrikes killed at least 16 people, according to the Houthi rebel group. Another 35 individuals were said to be wounded. Following the military action, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak stated the airstrikes were intended “to further degrade the military capabilities of the Houthis and to prevent further attacks on international shipping.” According to U.S. Central Command, the joint strikes hit 13 Houthi targets and “destroyed eight uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAV) in Iranian-backed Houthi controlled areas of Yemen and over the Red Sea.”

Houthi militants claimed the strikes targeted unlawfully civilians. “This represents a clear targeting of civilian structures, a blatant violation of all international laws, and a full-fledged war crime,” Brig. Gen. Yahya Saree, a Houthi military spokesman, said on Friday. Saree also claimed the Iranian-backed rebels had responded with a successful strike against the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower aircraft carrier. U.S. defense officials have denied the Houthi claim.

Meanwhile, The National Pulse reported on Friday that Houthi rebels captured a U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone after it was downed over Yemen on Wednesday. It is the sixth U.S. MQ-9 Reaper to have been captured by the rebel group.

Sen. Mike Lee Declares War on Senate Democrats After Trump Verdict.

Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) is leading a coalition of Republican Senators who say they are “no longer cooperating with any Democrat legislative priorities or nominations” following Thursday’s guilty verdict against former President Donald J. Trump in his Manhattan-based hush money trial. The Utah Republican, in an open letter signed by seven of his colleagues, invited “all concerned Senators to join our stand.”

“The White House has made a mockery of the rule of law and fundamentally altered our politics in un-American ways,” Sen. Lee wrote before adding: “As a Senate Republican conference, we are unwilling to aid and abet this White House in its project to tear this country apart.”  Lee’s letter is joined by Sens. J.D. Vance (R-OH), Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), Eric Schmitt (R-MO), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Rick Scott (R-FL), Roger Marshall (R-KS), and Marco Rubio (R-FL).

In a statement exclusive to The National Pulse, Sen. Lee said: “This is a time for choosing. Are Republicans—or any elected officials of any party—going to sit idly by and watch as America’s judicial system is reduced to the legitimacy of a banana republic, or are we going to do something?”

The group of Senate Republicans is pledging to block all non-security-related funding for the Biden government, as well as any appropriations bill that could fund Biden’s partisan lawfare against former President Trump. Additionally, Lee’s coalition says they will vote against confirmation for any future Biden judicial nominees or political appointees and prevent the expedited passage of any non-security legislation in the Senate.

Biden Lawfare Backlash: GOP Rakes In Cash Following Trump Verdict.

The Republican Party is setting fundraising records following the guilty verdict issued against former President Donald J. Trump in his Manhattan-based hush money trial on Thursday. Small-dollar donors have flocked to the Trump presidential campaign, the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), and the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) in response to the Democrat lawfare efforts against the presumptive Republican nominee.

On Friday, the NRCC announced it had raised $300,000 following Thursday’s verdict, its best fundraising day of the 2024 cycle so far. A spokesman for the NRCC noted that 22 percent of the money raised came from new, first-time donors to the campaign committee. Likewise, the NRSC raised $360,000 in under 24 hours. The committee said online donations tripled after the jury issued the guilty verdict.

Meanwhile, former President Trump‘s 2024 campaign committee raked in nearly $35 million by Friday morning. Fueled by small-dollar donations, Trump’s fundraising haul almost doubled the previous single-day record on the WinRed platform. The Trump campaign highlighted that 29.7 percent of the donors were first-time contributors.

The NRCC’s post-verdict fundraising blew past the $175,000 it raised when Representative Mike Johnson (R-LA) was elected Speaker of the House. The NRSC’s fundraising also edged out the $325,000 it posted on Super Tuesday.

“The American people hate how the justice system was weaponized to convict President Trump,” NRCC spokesman Will Reinert said in a statement announcing the record contribution numbers. He added: “They are opening up their wallets to protest Joe Biden and House Democrats’ kangaroo court, and they will deliver the final verdict with their votes this November.”

Illegal Alien Jose Ibarra Who Murdered Laken Riley Pleads NOT GUILTY?!

Illegal Venezuelan immigrant Jose Ibarra, charged with the murder of Augusta University student Laken Riley, entered a not-guilty plea during his arraignment on Friday. Ibarra, 26, is facing a ten-count indictment related to the death of Riley, a 22-year-old nursing student attacked on February 22 while jogging on dirt trails on the University of Georgia campus in Athens.

The arraignment occurred at Athens-Clarke County Superior Courthouse, where Riley’s mother, Allyson Phillips, was visibly emotional — breaking down in tears. The judge has scheduled a status hearing for August, with the trial expected to occur later in the fall.

Ibarra faces multiple charges, including malice murder, two counts of kidnapping with bodily injury, two counts of aggravated assault with intent to rape, two counts of aggravated battery, obstructing or hindering a person from making a 911 call, tampering with evidence, and being a “peeping Tom.”

The indictment alleges that Ibarra caused Riley’s death by blunt-force trauma to her head and asphyxiating her in an unspecified manner. He is also accused of spying on a university staff member in an apartment on the same day of the alleged murder.

Ibarra resided in an apartment complex near the on-campus park where Riley was jogging. University of Georgia Police Chief Jeffrey Clark described the incident as a “crime of opportunity,” noting the proximity of Ibarra‘s apartment to the crime scene.

Records indicate that Ibarra, originally from Venezuela, entered the United States illegally through El Paso, Texas, in September 2022. He was reportedly released into the U.S. on parole, according to sources from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

Former President Donald J. Trump has repeatedly blasted the Biden government for its open borders policies, which have allowed murderers like Ibarra to enter the country illegally.
